Wollongong City Council, Australia Ventia Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year

Ready to Bring the Heat?  Become Our Next Equipment Specialist at Coke Plant 2

Ventia is on the hunt for a mechanically-minded legend to join our Coke Plant 2 Asset Team at the iconic BlueScope Port Kembla Steelworks. If you know your way around pressure vessels, pipelines, and plant shutdowns—and you've got a knack for keeping things running smoother than a fresh weld—this is your moment to shine

Why You'll Love This Role:

  • Work with a team that's as solid as steel.
  • Enjoy a coastal lifestyle while working in one of Australia's most iconic industrial sites.
  • Use your brain and your hands—this role is all about thinking outside the (tool)box.
  • Be the go-to guru for inspections, maintenance planning, and equipment longevity.

What You'll Be Doing (Besides Looking Awesome in PPE):

  • Monitoring and reporting on asset condition (you'll be the Sherlock Holmes of steel).
  • Supporting the Asset Improvement Coordinators with daily tasks.
  • Scoping and planning maintenance, shutdowns, and breakdowns.
  • Creating work orders in SAP (yes, we know it's a love-hate relationship).
  • Participating in RCA (Root Cause Analysis, not the record label).
  • Getting hands-on with multi-discipline teams—because teamwork makes the dream work.

What You'll Bring to the Table (Besides Your Toolbox):

  • Mechanical Trade Qualification (bonus points if you've got a Diploma of Engineering or are keen to get one).
  • Solid mechanical aptitude and problem-solving skills.
  • A proactive attitude and pride in your work.
  • Experience in similar roles or ready to take the next step.
  • NSW Driver's Licence, and computer literacy.
  • A passion for improvement and a knack for communication.
